This function removes a notification. This is usually in response to some action taken on the data that is outside of the notification system. For example, if a message is read or deleted and the notification becomes obsolete by means other than action taken from the notification bubble.

Syntax

LRESULT SHNotificationRemove(
  const CLSID* pclsid,
  DWORD dwID
);

Parameters

pclsid
[in] Class identifier of the notification to remove.

dwID
[in] Specifies the unique identifier of the notification icon to remove. Do not set the value of this parameter to 0; that option is not implemented. If the value of this parameter is set to 0, the function will return an ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER error.

Return Value

This function returns ERROR_SUCCESS when successful.

The following list shows the return values on failure, for a Windows Mobile Professional and Windows Mobile Classic.

ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER
ERROR_OUTOFMEMORY
ERROR_DLL_INIT_FAILED
ERROR_NOT_FOUND
ERROR_NO_MATCH

The following list shows the return values on failure, for Windows Mobile Standard.

ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER

For a description of these error values, see System Errors - Alphabetical Order.

Code Example

The following code example demonstrates how to use SHNotificationRemove.

Note

To make the following code example easier to read, security checking and error handling are not included. This code example should not be used in a release configuration unless it has been modified to include them.

static const GUID CLSID_SHNAPI_Test = { 0x33765136, 0x8cb9, 0x449a, { 0xb0, 0x20, 0x43, 0xed, 0x40, 0xa, 0xb8, 0xfc } };
void SHNotificationExample()
{
    // This code will add an SHNotification notification 
    SHNOTIFICATIONDATA sn  = {0};
    SHNOTIFICATIONDATA sn2 = {0};
    sn.cbStruct = sizeof(sn);
    sn.dwID = 1;
    sn.npPriority = SHNP_INFORM;
    sn.csDuration = 15;
    sn.hicon = LoadIcon(g_hInstance, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_SAMPLEICON));
    sn.clsid = CLSID_SHNAPI_Test;
    sn.grfFlags = 0;
    sn.pszTitle = TEXT("Sample Notification");
    sn.pszHTML = TEXT("<html><body>This is <b>sample html</b> in a notification!</body></html>");
    sn.rgskn[0].pszTitle = TEXT("Dismiss");
    sn.rgskn[0].skc.wpCmd = 100;
    //Add the notification to the tray
    SHNotificationAdd(&sn);
    //Put the data from an existing notification into a second SHNOTIFICATIONDATA struct
    sn2.cbStruct = sizeof(sn2);
    SHNotificationGetData(&CLSID_SHNAPI_Test, 1, &sn2);
    //Update the title, HTML, icon, and softkeys of the notification
    sn2.pszTitle = TEXT("Updated - Sample Notification");
    sn2.pszHTML = TEXT("<html><body>This notification has been <b>updated!</b></body></html>");
    sn2.hicon = LoadIcon(g_hInstance, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_SAMPLEICON2));
    sn2.rgskn[0].pszTitle = TEXT("Disabled");
    sn2.rgskn[0].skc.wpCmd = 100;
    sn2.rgskn[0].skc.grfFlags = NOTIF_SOFTKEY_FLAGS_DISABLED;
    SHNotificationUpdate(SHNUM_TITLE | SHNUM_HTML | SHNUM_ICON | SHNUM_SOFTKEYCMDS | SHNUM_SOFTKEYS, &sn2);
    //Remove the notification from the tray

    //Add a new notification that utilizes the MRE functionality
    sn.cbStruct = sizeof(sn);
    sn.dwID = 1;
    sn.npPriority = SHNP_INFORM;
    sn.csDuration = 15;
    sn.hicon = LoadIcon(g_hInstance, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_SAMPLEICON));
    sn.clsid = CLSID_SHNAPI_Test;
    sn.grfFlags = SHNF_STRAIGHTTOTRAY;
    sn.pszTodaySK = TEXT("New Task");
    sn.pszTodayExec = TEXT("\\windows\\tasks.exe");
    //Add the notification to the tray
    SHNotificationAdd(&sn);
    //Remove the notification from the tray
    SHNotificationRemove(&CLSID_SHNAPI_Test, 1);
}

Remarks

Notifications are typically removed when the user taps on a link in the notification bubble. This function only needs to be called when the notification needs to be removed because of external changes in state.
